Thanks for the reminder!
I'll be honest: even if somebody in this list objects to dropping
Python 2 support, I'm not willing to be maintainer of a Python 2
codebase in 2020. The only reason for not doing it in 4.1 was
the tests/vm/netbsd breakage we took very long to debug and fix.
I have just submitted this pull request:

I am pretty sure that I am not a python maintaainer at all.
But anyways, python3 is only at python3.7.
python3.0 debuted at 2008, so ...

And anything else that you can think that endorses the change.
Later, Juan.
